For the next several days, Emery spent the majority of his time focusing on diving into the field of apothecary and taking part in the training for the upcoming Royal Hunt.
In between the two activities, he also went out to complete some of the Wolf Guild's tasks that would give a huge sum of fame points with his newly-formed pack Twilight Fang. With their current level, nearly any Grade D task available were too easy for them.
Nonetheless, the time they spent on completing those tasks was not wasted as it also served to directly practice what they learnt and further enhance their teamwork. Moreover, they had also managed to save some fame points to exchange some Wolf-specific skills from the Wolf Guild.
Whenever Emery headed back to the Apothecary Center for his session of the day, the old chief Beowulf would step in his absence, instructing each member of the pack about their deficiencies and teaching some of the individual-centric techniques they needed.
Amongst those in the pack, the old chief was particularly interested in coaching Yoro and Morgana. After observing them, he came to the conclusion that the two of them were awfully lacking in proper technique, which meant the highest potential for drastic improvements.
For Yoro, the chief went for specialization and guided the young man to better utilize his innate given ability [Earthpulse] to become a better scout and provide effective reconnaissance for the group.
Morgana's training, on the other hand, was entirely physical. The chief purely aimed to improve her abilities in that aspect, particularly the wolf half-blood battle art skills and fighting techniques.
On this particular day, just as he was about to return to his residence, Emery was held back by a group of familiar Apex experts. Apparently, they had completed the first result of what they called [Booster Pill - 7001] and were ready for him to try out its effects.
Emery was naturally both excited and anxious to hear this. On one hand, he was somewhat hesitant to consume a pill made by people he did not trust, on the other, he had been following its development closely and knew most of the ingredients.
It actually had similarities to the recipe he got from Bob, the one he used to make. A high-tier reagent, a high-tier toxin and the blood of two kinds of Mythical wolves, ones with dark affinity and another with light.
Unfortunately, it was a complete failure.
[Calculating ancestor blood essence percentage…]
[47% Twilight Fey wolf essence found]
The last time Emery received an increase in his gene essence percentage was a few hours after he formed his Twilight Fang pack. It had been almost two weeks since that time. After today's examination, he found there was no change whatsoever. It had remained the same since the last time he had checked it.
This was after he had consumed all of the serum given by Bob, meaning those new 7001 pills had minimum to no effect on him.
Looking at the screen showing the evidence of their failure, the group of experts fell silent before Grandmaster Reikun spoke what everyone was thinking. "It seems that the pill is not effective at all. We will try harder."
Emery said nothing to those words and just smiled. The Ouroboros facility had taken months to create the booster he currently had, so he wasn't very optimistic that they would be able to have a better one in the near future.
After the pill trial and body examination, Emery made his way back to the residence to find a familiar girl waiting for him.
"You are back already, Annara," he said as he walked to her side.
Without turning her head, she observed the Twilight Fang members who were currently training and said, "I've tried to return as quickly as I could, but it seems I've missed out too much already."
The person in the pack she was interested in the most was none other than Morgana, whom she had just realized was not a citizen of Silvermane.
While Emery was interested in how she knew about it, Annara showed him a newly created identity card for Morgana, one that said she came from the same planet as Evan Valerious.
Finally, turning to Emery, the red-haired girl said, "Where is she from really? I really can't guess... It's me, Annara Vermont, of all people!"
At her casual way of questioning, Emery casually answered, "Just don't think about it, you will not be able to guess it."
"Huh! I will find out soon enough even without you telling me!"

Now that Annara was back, what Emery was most interested in knowing was the result of sending the precious elixir to the Ouroboros facility. Alas, the reply from the red-haired girl was disheartening, to say the least.
"They said they need more time to completely research it. It's a Tier 7 product, after all."
Seeing the apparent disappointment on his face, the girl spoke again with a teasing smile. "Don't be too sad. I brought a new batch of serum for you."
Saying those words, Annara took out a box from her spatial ring and opened it, revealing two dozen [Fey Booster Serum] neatly arranged inside. To Emery's surprise, half a dozen vials looked different from the others, having a slight trace of silver in their color.
Pointing his finger at the different ones, Emery immediately asked, "What are those?"
With a proud expression on her face, the girl said, "Those are the enhanced versions that the facility has come up with, made using the Mythical Wolf Elixirs you won at that crazy festival."
"Really?" Emery asked, his tone slightly disbelieving. "That's great! Thank you, Annara."
Frankly speaking, other than the enhanced version, Emery doubted the other serum would be able to help much with his current situation. In fact, he was more excited by the idea of giving it to his pack, especially Morgana.
Realizing what Emery was planning to do with the items she had brought from far away caused annoyance to appear on the bat girl's face. Staring at him, she spoke in a sour tone. "One of these days, you're gonna have to pay for all my services," he replied with a wry smile.
After appeasing the red-haired girl, Emery consulted on what he was planning to try with Beowulf, which was surprisingly well-received by the latter.
The man thought that now that Emery was their Alpha, such a serum should have a positive effect on them, though perhaps not as much as Morgana with whom he had a closer blood tie.
With that, Emery quickly gave Andrei, Yoro and Tatyana three serums each, while he saved the rest for Morgana. Needless to say, everyone was excited to try the serum and see the effects.
A few days later, after consuming it every day, each of them received further boosts to their stats. It was also at this time that Emery found a particularly interesting task from the Wolf Guild. It was given to him for his continuous success within the D rank task.
It was a C-rank task, one that would provide all the fame points he needed to join the Royal hunt.
To his surprise, however, not only was it going to be a challenging task, but also a tricky one for his situation.
[C rank]
[Locate and eradicate Bandit Hideouts]
[High Threat, 3000 fame points]
[Bonus: Capture or Kill Bandit leader]
It was a mission that called for several wolf pack groups to act together for the purpose of destroying a Bandit hideout, however when he read the details. It wasn't just a common bandit, in fact it was the one formed by Tidus, the chain breakers rebels.
